The rise and rise of YouTube has redefined the way many of us usee to watch our favourite videos. Instead of watching them infront of our TV sets at predefined time, we can now watch our favourite shows or music videos at our own convenient time and location provided we have the necessary tools to view YouTube contents, internet browser and most importantly, high speed internet connection.

Traditionally, YouTube contents are watchable only on pc/laptops. However, with new technologies introduced every seconds, it is now possible to watch YouTube on mobile devices in various ways such as from it’s very own stripped down mobile site http://m.youtube.com and also from http://tinytube.net.

The latest version of P.I.P.S. now offers support for UIQ 3 phones running on Symbian OS v9.1 and v9.2. This makes P.I.P.S. available for all the current UIQ 3 phones.

In addition to support for Symbian OS v9.2, the leatest version of P.I.P.S. also includes support for IPv6, multicast support, new IOCTLs, and socket API enhancements as well as various bug fixes. In addition, there is a new P.I.P.S. libz library that offers a full-featured port of the Open Source zlib compression library (www.zlib.net). While this library was previously available to S60 developers (in the Open C release of November 2007) developers can now use basic compression, decompression, and operate on gzip (.gz) files from both P.I.P.S applications and native Symbian applications on UIQ 3 phones.
